THE PROCESS

What a tech interview looks like

Most SDE and intern hiring follows these four rounds, on campus or off campus. Experiences show how each company runs them.

  1. 01

    Online assessment

    A timed coding test with two to four DSA problems, sometimes with aptitude or MCQs.

  2. 02

    Coding rounds

    Live DSA problem solving. Interviewers look for a working solution, complexity, and edge cases.

  3. 03

    System design

    Common from SDE-2 up: design a scalable service or model classes, then defend the trade-offs.

  4. 04

    Manager and HR

    Project deep dives and behavioural questions. Amazon weights leadership principles as heavily as code.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is Interview Experiences free to use?

Yes. You can create a free account to read full stories, explore questions, and contribute to the community.

What can I find in an interview experience?

Each interview experience can include the hiring process, every round from the online assessment to the HR round, the coding and system design questions asked, preparation notes, and the candidate's outcome. Detail varies by contributor.

How do I find interview experiences for a specific company?

Open a company page, such as Amazon or Google, or search on the experiences page. You can filter interview experiences by company, role, location, years of experience, and outcome.

Are there interview experiences for freshers and interns?

Yes. Candidates share SDE intern, new grad, on-campus placement, and off-campus interview experiences alongside experienced-hire interviews, so you can read stories that match your level.

What are OA questions?

OA questions are the problems asked in a company's online assessment, the timed coding test that usually comes before the interview rounds. Candidates share the OA questions they received, tagged by company and difficulty.

How should I use interview experiences to prepare?

Read several recent experiences for your target company and role, note the rounds and repeated question topics, practise those topics, and prepare stories for the behavioural round. Recent experiences are the best guide because hiring processes change.

Can I share my own interview experience?

Yes. Sign in and use Share your story to describe your interview process and help other candidates prepare. You can share OA questions and salary data too.
